Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil

If you guys know me at all you are all very well aware of the fact that I’m not a huge fan of my own hair.  I remember as a kid having these gorgeous locks of long thick hair. But as I’ve gotten older my hair has turned against me and I keep trying to find the magic combination of products to make it what is used to be … or at least closer to what it used to be.  I still say the start of the damage happened when I was dumb enough to perm my hair in the late 90’s…. I’ll kick myself forever over that stupid choice.


Anyway, lucky for me BzzAgent keeps sending me new products to try and rate and frankly some of the ones they’ve sent have really helped my hair over the last few years.  Last week BzzAgent sent me a Bzzkit with Garnier Fructis’ new Triple Nutrition Dry Oil to try.  Now this is not something I’ve ever even heard of before I was asked to participate in this campaign so its been kind of a learning curve for me.   What I’ve learned so far in the information back is that this is an all-in-one product that delivers silky, shiny hair and soft, supple skin.  It contains 3 nutritive weightless fruit oils: olive avocado and shea oils. Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil is a breakthrough multiuse formula that delivers rapid-action nourishment to treat your hair, body and even dry areas on your face with no oily residue.  So I of course have been putting it to the test!

I've only been using the Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil for the past week but I can already see a difference.  My hair has always been on the dry side no matter what shampoo/conditioner I use.  The ends just get damaged really fast and it looks frizzy.  But this Triple Nutrition Dry Oil relaxes those ends and gives it a nice healthy shine. 

After I shower I let my hair dry about half way and then just give it a few spritzes and then run a comb through it to make sure my hair is lightly covered from root to tip.  As it finishes drying my hair is smooth with zero frizz.  It took a couple days to figure out how many spritzes was the right amount for my particular type of hair.  If I do more than 2-3 it looks greasy when it dries. I also found that if I spray it on my already dry hair that it feels greasy as well so as I said it took me a few tries to figure out the optimum usage for this product.

I've also been spritzing my legs right after I shave them because shaving dries my legs out so much this time of year and I love the results.  It absorbs so quickly and doesn't leave any kind of residue on my skin.  I also really like that there isn't any kind of a strong fragrance to this oil.  Its light and smells clean/natural and I can see why people would love it for daily use on dry skin.  I haven’t been using it on my face for the simple fact my face is oily enough as it is and frankly I don’t need any more “nutrition” there.

It does have a few downsides but once I got a method of use down the fact that my hair is shiny, healthy looking, and really does feel like its getting the nutrition it needs has superseded any negatives of this product.  Overall I really like this product so far and think that I’ll continue to use and purchase it in the future.
